As is my nature, I work on several projects at the same time. The passion of writing with me is there since I learnt to read and write. I do not remember when, and how it occured to me that I could write, or I should write.
My mother used to write short devotional songs for her weekly kirtan meetings she had with a group of her friends, who gathered in rotation in the house of one or the other in turn to sing the devotional songs and exchange the gossip, perhaps.
She kept a diary, in which she wrote the bhajans she composed. I have that diary with me. Bringing a book of her bhajans is one of my projects, and I will take the liberty of including that book in the list of my books.
